Hey Hannity, et all--WMD were a figment of your imagination!: |

...... Inhofe, speaking to the press before Cheney's arrival, lambasted Democrats for Thursday's Senate vote to begin withdrawal from Iraq by Oct. 1 and the press for "mischaracterizing" the reasons for U.S. involvement.
"The whole idea of weapons of mass destruction was never the issue, yet they keep trying to bring this up," Inhofe said.
When asked why Gen. Colin Powell, then U.S. secretary of state, told the United Nations in 2003 that such weapons posed an imminent danger, Inhofe replied: "I can't answer that. In fact, I've never been one of the real strong fans of General Powell."
Pressed for an explanation, Inhofe said weapons of mass destruction were "incidental" to the decision to invade Iraq.
"The media made that the issue because they knew Saddam Hussein had used weapons of mass destruction. So we knew that they were there. But that was incidental to the fact we were going after terrorist camps."

6. Did you know that Inhofe is akin to bush in |
|
bankrupting companies. He was the CEO of an insurance company which he bankrupted. The feds were investigating him for fraud and come very very close to indicting him. But didn't. He then went on to run for office. And he lost the first couple of times. Then he got help from a democrat in getting his name known, I forgot the name but they called him the little giant. He then was elected to the senate. Worst thing that could happen to OK>
